Ripple

Tiny baby, so naive
 I can't believe what you believe
 You were once so happy here
 It may not be Eden or summer in Greece
 You may not even find the Gold Fleece
 In the drag of this atmosphere
 Now I don't want to bring up a delicate matter
 No I'd much rather bribe or flatter you
 'Cause flattery gets me everywhere
 But you punctured my tires, you crossed all my wires
 I brand your acolytes as a pack of liars
 And the fire's singing everywhere
 Buckle like a wreck on the cold green sea
 Like you were a ripple in my memory
 I lent you some collateral to buy new clothes
 It went out the window and up your nose
 And that's the end of the honeymoon
 Yeah we walked down the aisle for another mile
 I'd walk a million miles for one of your smiles
 And you can have all the money soon
 You're so deluxe, you're so divine
 You're so fifty light years ahead of your time
 You're a riddle, you're a ripple
 You're the human sacrifice to the goddess of ice
 Your hairdo is filled with diamonds and lice
 And you're hardly off the nipple
 Another little glitch in continuity
 Like you were a ripple in my memory
